Abstract :The study aims to determine and examine how secondary school students reflect the social studies lesson learning-teaching process on their drawings. One of the qualitative research methods, the phenomenology, was used. The data were obtained from the drawings of the students and the explanations for these drawings. Maximum variation sampling was used to determine the participants, and 118 students studying in the 5th, 6th, and 7th grades of three secondary schools in the central district of Isparta province participated in the research. The content analysis technique was used to analyse the research data. It has been determined that the students’ drawings mostly reflect classroom learning environments, traditional ordering, teacher-centred and expression-oriented methods, and listening-oriented student behaviours. In addition, it was determined that the expectation of a lesson held in the open air, where the students were more fun, games and activities were used, came to the fore.Keywords : Social studies, learning-teaching process of social studies, students’ drawings.
